Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album is rated in the top 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.5/100, a mean average of 76.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.6.

This is the best Dälek record as far as I’m concerned, and it’s right up there with the most abrasive, ambitious, and creative hip-hop albums I’ve ever heard.
From Filthy Tongue encapsulates so many raw emotions and feral grievances. By the end of the record’s runtime we are treated to a euphoric and expansive couple of tracks the likes of which I don’t think I’ve quite heard before, let alone ones I didn’t see coming on this album.
A classic and telling shape of things to come in hip-hop. Listen to this one without question.
Experimental hip hop had existed before this album, but it had yet to sound this cohesive.
This is some of the most creative hip-hop I've ever heard. Really awesome instrumentals creating a wall of sound type backing along with often abrasive drums and really cool bars and sampling makes for an unnerving experience and I can't help but love it. The last two tracks are amazing and really make the album. One of my favourites
Great record throughout, except for Black Smoke Rises, which takes too many liberties with noise and kind of loses purpose and takes away from the rest of the record.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
